annoyingtiger888 's review for:

The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo

DID NOT FINISH: 35%

---

I tried, I really did, but I just couldn't. This book is filled with unnecessary, boring information dumps that don't add to the story and can easily be cut out. I made it 35% of the way through this book and I wanted to throw myself into a wall. It felt like I had been listening for days.

I always force myself to finish books I start out of principle, even books I dislike. I just can't with this one. I think I made it over five hours and I was like, "Okay, I can do this, we're almost done, right? ........ Right?! 🫠 WRONG! 11 hours to go, baby, and I already wanna die, woo! 

I give up, this book has won. I'm throwing in the towel.
